Acqua di Gio Essenza
water notes · bergamot · grapefruit
Acqua di Gio Essenza opens on a breeze of citrus and watery notes, carried by bergamot and grapefruit. A heart of basil and jasmine brings a green, floral presence. The base of cedar and vetiver stays dry and quiet. Wear it on summer mornings, when the air is still cool by the water.
